Tua Rita Keir 2019

2019 is for Stefano Frascolla an exceptional vintage – one of the best vintages of the last two decades. Bright magenta in colour with an exuberant nose of vivid sweet blackcurrant, cream and spice, this has youthful raspberry, white pepper and flint flavours mixed with concentrated yet vibrant fruit. Impossible to resist, with a lovely weightless texture and harmony, it dances seamlessly across the palate and disappears with incredible lightness but lingering flavours. Syrah meets Burgundy! Drinking window: 2022-2032. Part of Best Italian wines: A selection of the greatest. Score – 98. (Susan Hulme, MW, decanter.com, May 8, 2021)
